If you have any negative comments about fasting, I don't want to hear them. Just help me out.

As a nurse, I have to tell you that what you're doing is very foolish. If you're fasting from food, why can't you drink milk, fruit juices, jello. Otherwise, I don't know what you expect anyone to say. There's really nothing you can do to make yourself feel better when you're starving your brain and body of fuel.

Dear Christ:
What I am doing is having water only for 24 hours. I typically start my day with a glass of warm water and a couple of vitamins. During the day I will consume three to four large glasses of ice water and take one more vitamin C. I recently reviewed what is acceptable for fasting and found it to be quite interesting. I obtained my information from my (Catholic) church and found that soft drinks, broth and even a small (snack) meal is acceptable. I personally stay with water and during the evening a glass of juice.
PS. Try not to compromise your health.
Best wishes,

I would drink alot of water and try to sleep most of it. Why 30 hours though? It seems like an odd number.

ok i went 40 something hours once without food...that was like months ago so i really hav no idea how i've ever been able to go long without food since i eat like A LOT but i've been trying this one new thing for me and it seems to work really well. okay wut u do is anytime u want food, get it but don't eat it. just chew it, don't swallow, then spit it into the garbage or something. if u live with parents, don't let them know cuz they might think ur developing an eating disorder or sumthing...well yea um forget that last part...

Drink lots of water.... I understand fasting because I have done it lots of time for church. Just make sure that you don't make yourself sick. You can always eat half a piece of bread if it gets to be too much

honestly nothing really. i fasted for 5 days i was hungry and pissed. trust me u can chew gum but then you'll get bored of it, u can keep drinking liquids but then again how much can u actually drink? u'll get fed up with having to piss all the time. ur best bet is well i dunno why u r fasting for religion or weightloss...but for n e reason ur best bet is to exercise or make ur self extremely busy ....the best solution for me was sleep.....u just have to tolerate it....

Take a couple antacids, like Tums or Rolaids (my fav) or Maalox. At least it will stop the burning. Works for me.

Coffee, Listerine strips, cinnamon tea. Smoking cigarettes
But why are you fasting?

Entertain yourself. Talk with a lot of friends and do work that takes time but is not strenuous.
